Dear Reader

First some book news:

I have a free short story for you.

The story is about Tamar, but told from the perspective of her brother Absalom. It’s a passionate exploration of the WHY behind “how things turned out.”

It might make you cry. It makes me cry. Enjoy your tears.

May it all draw you closer to Christ.

Now…to the confession

It’s all Emma’s Fault

I am so ashamed. And I am so enthralled.

That’s all I can share. I’ll have to tell you details next week, if I can find the courage.

HOWEVER–Since today I have Tamar’s story as a gift for you,
before going into details about my “information”
I must ask a _VERY IMPORTANT QUESTION_

Your answer will determine my “embarrassing news” and some upcoming book releases.

Again, apologies, and I will (probably) share the “information” next week.

Yours,

Darlene

BTW- If you want to share additional details about your KU-answer, please REPLY to this email.

From the Desk of Darlene N. Böcek 🔥 Faith-Forged Fantastical Fiction 🔥 How’s Your Heart, Reader? When I was a young adult, newly married, newly teaching, new to everything really, the pastor’s wife of our new church asked me one day: “How’s your heart?” and I found it a very interesting BUT prying 👀 question. But as I’ve matured, I have come see it as a question that we SHOULD ask ourselves. Instead of “How are you doing?” we should ask: “How’s your heart?” In this newsletter I surely don’t…
